Well, either in the example. Parent was saying "Reminds me on bash"

For sh version, I'd go with super-safe:

    if test "x$1" = "x$2"

If you're doing that, even better to use "x${1}" to be safer. Also, conditional expressions ( [[ instead of [ or `test`) are generally a bit more well-behaved. See http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/syntax/ccmd/conditional_express... for more info.

But [[ is a bashism - it won't work on bare sh.
